Jack was very helpful throughout the whole sales process showing us electric folding bikes with pros and cons of brands. The shop has a good stock range and knowledgeable staff. Highly recommended.

A dream comes true.

My wife has been dreaming for an electric bike for a couple of years now.
I advised her to wait for the tech in batteries to be right.
So in late March we took a trip over to Nottingham to have a look at what they had.
We couldn't have had a nicer team of staff to advise and guide us in what would suit my wife's needs.
They hade a Cube Katmandu Hybrid One in stock but not made up, the team said give us a couple of hours and it will be ready for you to test, couldn't ask for more in customer service.
So we popped back and there it was all built and ready to go, she liked it so we purchased and then found we could get £200.00 of extras, well she was like a child in the sweetie shop, helmet, lock, inner tube, bag for the rack and a water bottle cage done.
Will be coming back for a bike for myself in due course.

Thank you for the fantastic 5-star review! We’re delighted to hear your visit to our Nottingham store helped turn your wife’s dream into a reality.

It’s great to know the team were able to get the bike ready for a test ride so quickly and help you both find the perfect setup (and enjoy choosing those extras too!).

We really appreciate your kind words and look forward to helping you find a bike of your own in the future.

Great customer service

The staff at the Bristol shop have been excellent during the whole process of buying my new bike, especially Tiren who took the time to make sure the bike I bought was the right one for me. I was super impressed with his knowledge of all the products available and his understanding of what I needed.

Great bike and service in Bristol

I have collected my new Cube Touring Hybrid one ebike from Bristol today. It was great to have a test ride on a similar bike. The bike feels powerful and smooth on Bristol's many hills! I really appreciated the excellent service in the store and the time that was taken in adjusting the bike for me, as well as a really detailed explanation of all the features.

Avoid! Broken promises, 9-day delay, and zero after-sales care.

I am a loyal customer who spent £2,400 on a bike from this company in Dec, but my recent experience with their online support has been a disgrace.

I ordered a VanMoof rack on March 14th. Their own website states they aim to dispatch accessories the 'next working day,' yet my order sat for 9 days until I physically called them to chase it. When it finally arrived, it was the INCORRECT item. I was then told I had to pay for the return myself—a clear breach of the Consumer Rights Act for a retailer's error.

Worst of all, I initially agreed to an exchange, but only after I pushed for delivery times did 'Jason' admit there would be a further 10-14 day wait for the correct part. This was deliberately withheld during the initial negotiation despite knowing I needed it urgently for work.

I have now formally cancelled the order and requested a full refund, yet I am being ignored. No prepaid label has arrived 48 hours later. I’ve had to buy the part from a competitor. If a prepaid label and refund confirmation aren't in my inbox by the end of play, I will be initiating a bank chargeback. Shocking way to treat a loyal customer.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand your frustration.

We apologise that the incorrect item was sent and that the delay and next steps weren’t communicated clearly. This isn’t the level of service we aim to provide.

We are sending a prepaid return label this morning and will issue your refund as soon as the item has been received back with us.

Frequent visitor, excellent customer care

Frequent visitor to The Electric Bike Shop Bristol, since buying my first electric bike there about 5 years ago. We now go to get both our bikes serviced, and for advice on any Bike related issue that crop up. Rich is always very knowledgable and personable, and tailors his advice and recommendations to the cyclist in front of him. Rich and Tiren were both incredibly helpful when I came in earlier this week with a bad puncture, going over and above to get me back on the road quickly. Tiren even took the time to ease out an annoying squeak and advise me on future maintenance.

Excellent support from the team at The Electric Bike Shop

Communication and delivery were excellent. Unfortunately my legs were just a bit short for the bike so I had to return it. The shop was very supportive and gave excellent instructions on how to pack the bike. I'm now looking for another e-bike and hope that they'll be able to help me with finding a good folding bike for my short legs.

A great experience

A great experience! Ethan gave us quality time explaining and answering questions re purchasing an electric hybrid bike.
Nothing was too much trouble and we didn't feel rushed or obliged to buy. It was a very relaxing experience.
We were able to test ride the bike and given plenty of tips on its various functions.

Bristol branch - manager very rude and incompetent!

The only reason there are 5 stars is because its a good selection of bikes to purchase but the after service is appalling - really expensive compared to a local independent shop, they wont let you bring your bike in until your exact appointment time, you order and theres no communication, items lost and really rude people working in the Bristol branch, the manager is absolutely shocking! Clearly doesnt wont to be there and cant handle the day to day running well at all - out of his depth! Richard is a nice guy but is not capable of running the shop and so its wasted due to the bad management and leadership…

I found a much better place, such pleasant and friendly people - I will never go back - find a local independent place - there are loads and you will save lots of money and be treated humanely!

Great bike, great service, poor delivery

The Electric Bike Shop (EBS) gets 'marmite' reviews. My experience matches what I'd read - over optimistic delivery dates followed by (when late) a call to to a very helpful customer service person.

Bike arrived a few days late - it looked like DX (the courier) had dragged it through a bush (delivery labels scrubbed to the point of illegibility) then dropped it off a cliff to mash up the box.

I am pleased to report that the packaging was good enough to survive (bike in perfect condition) but still...

As for the bike (Tenways Ago X) it's awesome.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re pleased to hear you’re enjoying your Tenways AGO X and that the bike arrived in perfect condition despite the packaging being handled roughly in transit.

We’re sorry that delivery took longer than expected and for the condition the box arrived in. While we work closely with our courier partners, we know this isn’t the experience we want for our customers.

We really appreciate your balanced feedback and are glad our team were able to support you when needed.
